GREAT NEWS FROM TEXANA DESIGNS!

I'm sure some of you have heard the name Joyce Meyer and JAM'n Stamps. If not, you stampers will definitely recognize some of her stamp designs. JAM'n Stamps was in business from 2000-2005. In 2006, Joyce wanted to devote more time to her art and spend more time with her family. For those of you who know Joyce, I'm thankful to report that her eyes are improving!!

She is one of the sweetest spirits I have ever met. Her passion for art and enthusiasm for life is totally infectious and I've had the best time getting to know her. At one time, Joyce had her line of stamps in 33 Texas stores. Well, Texana Designs is adding some of Joyce's designs to the catalog and sending them out to our "reps". We are going to start small with only 4 of her designs, but no doubt that number will increase at a very fast pace.

Joyce has her BFA in Art and MA in Art Education. She taught art in the Texas Public Schools for 21 years! She has been an artist all her life and loves drawing, painting, photography and LOVES TEXAS. She is first and foremost a teacher. AND, we begin our second new venture in a few weeks by taking two days trips to some scrapbooking stores to talk about teaching classes. I know I'm going to learn so much from Joyce. She is a true PRO!!
